What do you think are the most important documents for a project?
Different people have different needs: for example the documents which the owner needs (e.g. the business contract) aren't the same as the documents which QA needs.
What documents can be used in the long run by another developer?
IMO the most important document (except for the source code) is the functional specification: because what the software is supposed to do (as opposed to, what it is doing) is the one thing that can't necessarily be reverse-engineered.
