Thank you for that! I didn't know you could bring up the mail list that
way. But that's very promising I think!

I asked the list and here was the response I got. Personally, I think that
it would be a good idea, but I don't know how to implement it myself.
"The besselexpand is an option variable in maxima core (part of the bessel

Thanks everyone! I do think that it would be ideal if this were
"automagically" converted to more elementary functions, especially from the
perspective of a student who is trying to get his peers to use Sage. Some
thoughts on this:
1. Would it be possible to implement in simplify_full() to,

(see e.g. (72) in
In Sage sum() is by default symbolic summation, here it just gives the
answer in terms of the Bessel function rather than sin.
It is a correct answer, too.
Probably the underlying engine (maxima) does not know how to simplify this
further.
