How to Copy Area Hierarchy from One TFS Team Project to Another?

Question

I have created a new Team Project using a different process template but a branch of the existing code.

Is there a way to copy the Area hierarchy from the original Team Project to the new one? I'd hate to have to enter it all by hand.

I don't know of an immediate way to do this in VS.

Shai Raiten has blogged about getting Areas/Iterations here & adding them programmatically here using TFS-API. These could probably be used as a basis to implement your copy/paste activities.
