I think my previous reply to this message got eaten, so I'm sending it again.

For now, I am letting DifferentialForms derive from sage.rings.ring.Algebra and I'm following the design of the quaternionic algebras, since they are the closest to what I need in Sage. Is there any way that I can express the fact that the algebra of differential forms is in the category GradedAlgebras? > > I personally think what you're doing is great.

As soon as I have something finished, I will put it up for review. Meanwhile, I will also collect the resources that people have posted in this thread, on a Wiki page or so.
