I think I like this better:
make_option('-e', '--exclude', dest='exclude', action='append',
help='App to exclude (use mutiple --exclude to exclude mutiple apps).'),
./manage.py dumpdata -e core -e countries -e sessions -e sites
previous way:
./manage.py dumpdata --exclude "core countries sessions sites"
