Mark Lutz wrote an expert system shell in Python named "Holmes". I don't recall where it was published; maybe he used it as an example in Programming Python (1st ed.). Try a Googe search for "expert system Python".
I found the file (holmes.tar.gz) at:

Here are some other links that may be worthwhile:
It is a delight to see this morning so much on the thread. I am thankful to all those who responded to the query. I have so much material now, I will take some time to digest this material. I have Mark Lutz's book (Programming Python 2nd Ed), fortunately, on my table, so looked at it immediately. Evidently I did not cover all the ground I have before I asked help. Sorry for bothering you. But this gave me confidence that next year I can actually offer this as a course after working with the existing material. I am presently involved in a project to develop a Zope based application for semantic web mostly using the structure of topic maps specification called GNOWSYS, (http://www.zope.org/Members/nagarjuna/GNOWSYS/) which is still in a development stage. I wish to develop this tool with AI enabled features, particularly as an expert system. I expect to release the first stable version by December 2002. Thanks again Nagarjuna
