Thanks!

Under the hood Maxima is indeed used to provide the low-level
integration capabilities
in Sage right now.

We haven't exactly decided yet.  For starters we at least want to make sure
Sage can compute many integrals that Maxima can't (but say Maple and/or
Mathematica can compute).    I've cc'd this email to sage-devel, so maybe people
there (e.g., Ondrej Certik) will say more about what they're interested
in doing.

No, that's definitely not planned.
