I'm pretty sure those functions are not documented, which is
unfortunate, because they are quite useful. They are quite safe, quite
supported, and unlikely to be changed or deprecated any time soon.
Short version:
>>> from django.db.models import get_model, get_models, get_apps
>>> get_apps()
[... list of application modules ]
>>> a = get_app('my_app')
>>> print a
<module 'testproject.myapp' from .../testproject/myapp.models.pyc>
>>> get_models(a)
[... list of model classes ...]
>>> get_model('myapp','Author')
<class 'myapp.models.Author'>
