Re: ox-taskjuggler on MELPA useful despite org-plus-contrib

[Tim Cross <theophilusx@gmail.com>]

While there are some minor issues with org-plus-contrib, I find them to
be minor and mostly due to limitations in package.el (for example,
dependency on org results in both org-plus-contrib and org packages
being installed). In fact, I find org-plus-contrib easier to manage than
just the straight org package as I experience fewer issues arising from
conflicts with the old 'bundled' version of org in emacs and the package
version. However, I also use use-package and I don't know to what extent
that impacts my load problems.

I do remember running into a frustrating limitation with org-taskjuggler
when I was using it a couple of years ago - cannot remember the specific
issue now, but do remember I would have to edit the exported taskjuggler
file after every export to adjust some parameters (it might have been
related to default project period, not sure).
