So, for example, the docs say to use `weblog.Entry` as a key in `ABSOLUTE_URL_OVERRIDES`, but `get_absolute_url` will actually look for `weblog.entry`. I'm of two minds on how to solve this; the naive solution is to have the curried `get_absolute_url` look for `opts.module_name.capitalize()`, since that will make it consistent with the examples in the docs, but it's entirely possible that someone will create a model class with an all-lowercase name (which is, I assume, why `module_name` is normalizing it to lowercase), in which case the better solution is to change the docs." closed Documentation dev fixed nsteinmetz@… Ready for checkin 0 0 0 0 0 0
