The central extension of the Thompson group $T$ that arises in the quantized
Teichm\"uller theory is 12 times the Euler class. This extension is obtained by
taking a (partial) abelianization of the so-called braided Ptolemy-Thompson
group introduced and studied in \cite{FK2}. We describe then the cyclic central
extensions of $T$ by means of explicit presentations.
