Hello everyone.
Sometime back, I had started working on a sub-module for sympy.physics on 
electrodynamics after getting a go-ahead from the mailing list. I did some 
work, but then could not complete it because of my other work commitments 
and coursework. It is obvious that building such a module from scratch will 
require some careful planning and development.
Considering the usefulness of sympy.physics.mechanics, something like 
sympy.physics.electrical or sympy.physics.electromagnetism would be a good 
addition to SymPy's existing physics module. 
The work I have done as of now can be seen at
https://github.com/sympy/sympy/pull/1695

I understand its just the tip of the iceberg, if I have to build a complete 
architecture for my idea. That is why, on encouragement from @asmeurer and 
@certik, I want to formally propose development of this module over the 
summer as a part of GSOC-2013. I plan to implement all basic concepts of 
electromagnetism like conservative fields, electro-magnetic 
interactions,dipoles, laws like Beer-Lambert's , etc. and if possible, move 
on to relativistic electromagnetism.

@moorepants, @gilbertgede, @hazelnusse, since you people have worked on the 
physics module before, I would like your take on this.
