Hi Agus:
Would you be interested to add "How to add support for *.ecw and *.sid 
rasters" ??
i.e.:
5(a) . Following the instructions here: 
http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/wiki/pkg-gdal-ecw
download (requires registration and agreeing to the license) and install 
the ERMapper SDK, and copy four *.dll files from the SDK to 
C:\Windows\System32.
In the OSGeo installer, under Libs, select also gdal-ecw and gdal-mrsid.

Cheers,
Micha
