It turned out to be because the sequence you need to do is


	1) Do a post
	2) Get a redirect url
	3) post again to that url

I thought LWP::UserAgent would do that for me and, indeed, it followed
the redirect but didn't supply all the right data. And Google decided
that 200 OK was the best response for that. *seeethe*

Net::Google::Calendar now has a lot of duplicated code that needs 
refactoring but can list, post and delete events. 

I now have a deep loathing of XML::Atom and its namespace support and so 
updating events will have to wait until I clean out the current entry 
xml generation hack but, in the meantime, feel free to play.
