I myself use tj2, so the exporter is tested for that. Initially I had
thought that the exporter was also working for tj3 since the differences
in the syntax are supposedly very minor. But I've had reports by users
that the exporter generates code that doesn't work with tj3.
I just installed tj3 and tested it with a generated tjp file. There are
a number of problems: you need to replace all occurrences of "purge
allocations" with "purge allocate". Also you seem to be required to mark
all milestones explicitly (with "milestone"). Thirdly you need to
change the report definitions.
- The issue with purge allocate needs to be changed in the exporter
code. For now you will have to search and replace as mentioned above.
- The milestone issue can be dealt with by assigning the milestone
property to an item. It would be nicer if this just worked if an item
doesn't have an effort property.
- The problems with reports can be solved by changing the report
definition (via customize)
I'll have to work with the taskjuggler list to see if and what we can do
about these issues, if we can somehow ease the migration.
Hope that helps
Christian

Christian,
thanks for looking into this.
After a lot of googling, I actually managed to get TJ2 to run on my box,
but it's a pain ... TJ3 would certainly make life easier.
I'll look into the issues you mentioned ...
Thanks and Cheers
Markus

Same here.
Looking forward support of tj3 in org-taskjuggler.el...
Thanks Christian!
