From OpenOpt
Optimization:
- Pyomo (Python Optimization Modeling Objects package) - another one Python optimization framework, similar to AMPL, has some bindings to OpenOpt
- PyAMG - Algebraic Multigrid (AMG) solvers (large-scale linear systems)
- CVXOPT - optimization framework for convex problems, Python API, written in C/Python
- NLPy - another one Python package for numerical optimization, can read optimization problems coded in the AMPL modeling language
- coin-or - lots of free numerical optimization projects, mostly C/C++/Fortran written
- plato.asu.edu - Decision Tree for Optimization Software + lots of benchmarks (by Hans D. Mittelmann)
- Global optimization portal by Arnold Neumaier,
has subsection for local optimization software
Scientific Python distributions:
(they include numpy, scipy, matplotlib and much more scientific packages)
- SAGE (license: GPL)
- PythonXY (license: GPL)
- EPD (license: Free for academic)
Misc:
- Eric IDE - my favourite Python IDE, even in comparison with commercial ones (BTW it's available in Linux *BUNTU update channels)
- Ironclad - an Open Source project started by Resolver Systems. Its aim is to make CPython C Extensions usable from IronPython (first of all numpy and scipy should be mentioned).
- industrialengineertools - blog related to industrial engineer tools
