Intevation[1] is a good first stop. The firm itself is responsible for
MapIt[2] and Bernhard Herzog of Intevation is the author of Sketch[3],
which has a plugin to handle ArcView shapefiles. In addition Intevation
maintain FreeGIS[4]. Searching for the string "Python" on this site will
give you more links.
