Some followup, in case some other poor soul searches for this topic:
I found some better doc for get-absolute-url() here:
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/instances/?from=olddocs#get-absolute-url
Including a better example:
@models.permalink

hoa/', kwargs={..}) which fails. Templates supress Exceptions so you
do not see them.

relationships. Something is not sticking in my brain.
I usually get something working by blind cut and paste. Looking for a
more conceptual explanation, or
