I'm not sure what "Rules Engine" means. Care to explain? It is such a 
generic term it could be referring to "business rules", A.I., 
Prolog-like logic programming, or more.

Have you googled?

https://www.google.com.au/search?q=python+%22rules+engine%22

https://duckduckgo.com/?q=python%20%22rules%20engine%22

If you mean something like Prolog, then Pyke appears to be a very 
popular choice, but it doesn't look like there is a huge amount of 
development activity going on. Perhaps that means it is a stable product 
and doesn't need much on-going development? For business rules, 
Intellect seems to be a popular choice.

By the way, emailing "webmaster at python.org" is completely inappropriate 
for this. The webmaster is responsible for maintenance of the Python.org 
website, not answering random questions about third-party libraries.
