Can you also provide example sage sessions showing how you think these
objects should be constructed?

I completely agree with Martin's previous comments on this. :)

I was planning to send a separate message about this topic, but since
Michael brought it up here it goes...

Is there anybody else interested in a wrapper for the noncommutative
functionality provided by Singular?

Singular's capabilities are described in the manual here:

http://www.singular.uni-kl.de/Manual/latest/sing_356.htm#SEC397

If you're interested please write back with the following information
 - what exactly are your needs
 - ideas for a possible user interface (example Sage session)
 - if you can contribute to the development (testing patches and
   designing an interface is also a contribution)


BTW, I will also be working on using Singular for rational function
fields, and (as time permits) maybe also algebraic function fields. I
would appreciate any help in that area as well.


Cheers,
Burcin
