Transitioning a project

Recently, we have had to transition several items within my team. Skillful transition documentation is an art. Its hard to be encompassing and clear at the same time. Information that we try to pass onto others are:

The task along with any associated tracking number
Description of the Task
Reason for the Task
User Contact Information
Vendor Contact Information
What has been done
What needs to be done
Application Information
Application Type
Location
Documentation Location
ODBC info
Database Location (Develop/Test/Prod)
Source Code Location(Develop/Test/Prod)
Any associated usernames and passwords
Testing Cases
Outstanding Issues and What has been attempted to resolve
What this task is dependent upon
What order to move things live.

So far this has worked well, Is there any additional information you would include?
