I am not working on Taskjuggler exporter. I do have a FreeMind exporter
in the works.
That said, moving the TaskJuggler exporter to new org-export-* APIs -
Nicolas calls them tools - is "a good thing". Each new exporter,
exercises or emphasizes different aspects of the export infrastructure.
I am sure "porting" TaskJuggler will further solidify the org-export
framework in terms of exposing existing bugs or adding new utilties or
APIs.

If TaskJuggler exporter "just works", then it is good. The porting task
can be done in an un-hurried manner.
