brain dump

   [common]  The  act  of  telling  someone everything one knows about a
   particular  topic or project. Typically used when someone is going to
   let  a  new party maintain a piece of code. Conceptually analogous to
   an  operating  system  {core  dump}  in that it saves a lot of useful
   {state}  before  an  exit.  "You'll  have  to give me a brain dump on
   FOOBAR  before you start your new job at HackerCorp." See {core dump}
   (sense   4).  At  Sun,  this  is  also  known  as  TOI  (transfer  of
   information).
