They are --- you can use them from sympy inside Sage. It's my goal
that all sympy features are nicely integrated in Sage. I work on this
as time permits.

We got 5 summer of code students this year, so we'll move sympy a lot
forward this summer. The most important project:

http://socghop.appspot.com/student_project/show/google/gsoc2009/portland_state/t124024247737

will disentangle the assumptions, so that we should then be able to
easily use any other core, like pynac, or our own cython core. Besides
that when my school ends in less than a month, I plan to work hard on
SPD:

http://code.google.com/p/spdproject/

so that one can easily create Sage like projects with his own
packages. I expect this to make it easier for people to create
libraries in a way, so that they are easy to use with Sage, e.g. they
work with plotting, etc., but they could distribute their own version
of all in one distribution.

In any case, this will be an exciting summer.
