Well, it's already well explained, with examples and all, in the PEP 327:

http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0327.html#rounding-algorithms

I'll point to there from the Money PEP, but I think this should be
somewhere in the docs. I mean, as a final user, you shouldn't read a
PEP or a 3rd party doc to know how to use a module.
