there are a couple ways to pass options in, so it doe3s get hard to 
figure out:

PACKAGES = ['A_Package',
             'Another_Package',
             ]

INCLUDES = ['A_Module',
             'Another_Module',
            ]

EXCLUDES = ['A_module_you_don't_want',
            ]

OPTIONS = {'argv_emulation': True,
	   'packages': PACKAGES,
            'includes': INCLUDES,
            'excludes': EXCLUDES,
            }


'packages' includes the entire package -- including all data, etc.
'includes' only includes module, but it's a bit buggy if the module is 
inside a package hierarchy. For instance, if you have:

import packageA.packageB.moduleA

and you include 'packageA.PackageB.moduleA' in py2app, module A will get 
put in the bundle, but at the top level, so it would have to be imported 
by: 'import moduleA'

you can work around that by either adding all of packageA, or, 
specifically including the whole chain:

INCLUDES = ['packageA',
             'packageA.packageB'
             'packageA.packageB.moduleA'
            ]
