Hi,

On version 9.3 (9.3-elpaplus @
$HOME/.emacs.d/elpa/org-plus-contrib-20191203/), `ox-taskjuggler'
exports the :Effort: property calculated via
`org-duration-to-minutes', e.g. 2d get exported as 48.0h instead of
the literal 2d.

This is unexpected and makes the Taskjuggler export unusable for me in
the current form. Is there a rationale for this? Maybe I'm missing
something and it's more reasonable to plan in working hours instead of
working days. Otherwise, could that behaviour get changed or at least
put behind a variable/customize interface?

Regards,
Benjamin

I don't know. I removed the transformation.

Thank you for the report.

From memory, I seem to recall that this had something to do with the
ambiguous understanding of what 2d really meant i.e. 48 hours, 16 hours
(assuming 8 hour work day).

I have no opinion regarding which is better, but I don't use taskjuggler
any more (due to other 'limitations' with the export/configuration which
I just cannot recall now - it was many years ago).
