Btw, I would be very interested in making SymPy/CSymPy the default in Sage, currently Sage uses Pynac for symbolics. It uses SymPy + Maxima for integrals. I think SymPy could be used where Maxima is used, but SymPy itself is only about as fast as Maxima (maybe a bit faster, but not much), while Pynac is much faster. The CSymPy's speed is very good (much faster than Pynac and a bit faster than GiNaC on the few synthetic benchmarks that we tried so far), and functionality-wise, CSymPy is not that far behind Pynac. I think the last two things missing from CSymPy are series expansion and pattern matching, which hopefully we'll implement over the summer. I am personally very excited about our progress with CSymPy, and if we managed to get it used by Sage eventually, it would bring a lot of new users and developers, so it's a worthy goal.
