Hello,

I submitted a pull request for the problem you observed:

https://github.com/sympy/sympy/pull/1261

Once this is in, the particular sum (and some related ones) should work.

I found the usefull summation function, which seems to work well
(examples from todays version from git)

In [30]: summation(1/k**2,(k,1,oo))
Out[30]:
  2
π

6

In [31]: summation( (-1)**k * binomial(n,k), (k,0,n))
Out[31]: 0

But:

In [32]: summation( binomial(n,k), (k,0,n))
Out[32]:
   n
  ____
  ╲
   ╲   ⎛n⎞
    ╲  ⎜ ⎟
    ╱  ⎝k⎠
   ╱
  ╱
  ‾‾‾‾
k = 0

Which should be possible to do!
(I think sage can do that one)
