The documentation for the homology method is now here:

http://www.ensembl.org/info/about/docs/compara/homology_method.html

Ensembl -> About Ensembl -> Additional Documentation and Resources -> "More..." in

Comparative Genomics tools - Ensembl uses a range of software tools, many developed in-house, to align sequence from different species and identify homologues, syntenous regions and conserved areas of the genome. More...
