I'd really re-read through the upgrade guide: - http://orgmode.org/worg/org-8.0.html#sec-6 The exporters start with ox-*.el now, not org-*, which may be why you're not finding them. Also, if you're like me (and your comments look like you are), you may enjoy using the second method to load backends so that you have the variables accessible for help/customization *prior* to exporting with the given backend the first time. This is sort of mentioned at the link above, covered in Section 3 of Nicolas' original announcement: - http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/65574 I also walked through it with examples of impact on another post: - http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/71874) It's also discussed on my blog; see the little section toward the end called "Note on .emacs settings": - http://jwhendy.blogspot.com/2013/03/migrating-to-new-org-mode-exporter-org.html While the documentation is still in rough shape (sorry about that), the tj3 page should at least get you to the point where you can C-c C-e J for taskjuggler export: - http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-taskjuggler3.html Almost everything from the old documentation regarding the Org file structure is still applicable. The only thing that's really changed is there's no gui in tj3 and the report format changed. Keep the questions coming and good luck! I'll try to get some further setup instructions up as well as porting Taskjuggler's tutorial file and default report over to the tj3 page within the next week or so.
