AFAICT, Org's Taskjuggler exporter works fine with both tj2 and tj3.  

You need to configure `org-export-taskjuggler-target-version'.

There is some work to be done to make this library even more useful (see
the the todo list in org-taskjuggler.el) but it's already usable.  I use
it for a project.

Nice -- I'd love to see how Org can produce such TeX gantt charts.

Thanks for the pointers,
