Are you trying to build a SP or an IdP? We've built both using a C library, lasso[1], which has python bindings. Entrouvert is a french company, backed by government grants, which produces open source software for identity management. Plus facile si tu parle français though. If it is just a SP, you only really have to implement AssertionConsumerService and SingleLogoutService, and be able to initiate a SSO request to the IdP - its not masses of work, particularly with lasso. We've not hooked into a Shibboleth federation yet however, there may be intricacies to their federation.
