I think it is more that you cannot change those dates. They are the dates that the event is updated on or published by Google's servers, see http://code.google.com/apis/gdata/basics.html#Inserting-a-new-entry . I don't have time to try it, but I expect that any updated or published dates that you submit when creating or updating an event will be ignored. > Even so, I need to set them myself since I use those fields to compare > event between this calendar and Outlook.

The standard is gd:extendedProperty. The xml would look something like this. <gd:extendedProperty name='myapp.com#outlook_first_published' value='2008-05-02T17:39:38.000Z' /> See here for setting extended properties in Java: http://code.google.com/apis/calendar/developers_guide_java.html#ExtendedProps.
