I would appreciate pineapple's supporting Sagemath.

This is a great idea. I've used sage in the past and loved it, I'm looking into how sage and ipython can work together.

Based on 5 minutes of research, my thoughts are that the best way to do this is to provide a version of Pineapple with all the right libraries etc. included. Then you could do "%load_ext sage" to turn on sage inside the notebook. Let me know if that sounds like it is on the right track or not.

Thank for your consideration of my amateurish idea. Your plan sounds challenging. Will it use the sage's official package (e.g., sage-6.8-x86_64-Darwin-OSX_10.10_x86_64-app.dmg)?

After thinking more on this I think sagemath would just be a kernel, that is simpler. The sagemath kernel would be implemented by the official sage package.
