>From this description, it sounds like you are using the 'full'
projection, which generally does not contain a summary element.   In
the 'basic' projection, the summary element contains a generated
summary of the event.    The intent of the 'basic' feed is for human
consumption/traditional syndication.

The 'full' feed contains the same information, but structured using
the Event kind data model.   The intent of the 'full' projection is
generally for programmatic/read-write access to the data.

You can find more data about the various projections here:

     http://code.google.com/apis/gdata/calendar.html#Feeds

And the specific details of the Event kind data model here:

If the 'full' projection feed (i.e. the Event kind data model), you'll
find the Description data from the web UI inside of the <atom:content>
element.
