The following code has samples of how to create an event using the lib
http://code.google.com/apis/calendar/docs/1.0/developers_guide_js.html
Search for "Create new calendar"


Sample code:
======================
/*
* Create new calendar
*/

// Create the calendar service object
var calendarService = new google.gdata.calendar.CalendarService
('GoogleInc-jsguide-1.0');

// The default "owncalendars" feed is used to insert calendar to the
logged-in user
var feedUri = 'http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/default/
owncalendars/full';

// Create an instance of CalendarEntry, representing the new calendar
var entry = new google.gdata.calendar.CalendarEntry();

// Set the calendar title
entry.setTitle(google.gdata.Text.create('JS-Client: insert
calendar'));

// Set the calendar summary
var summary = new google.gdata.Text();
summary.setText('This is a test calendar created by JS Client');
entry.setSummary(summary);

// Set the calendar timezone
var timeZone = new google.gdata.calendar.TimeZoneProperty();
timeZone.setValue('America/Los_Angeles');
entry.setTimeZone(timeZone);

// Set the calendar location
var where = new google.gdata.Where();
where.setLabel('Mountain View, CA');
where.setValueString('Mountain View, CA');
entry.addLocation(where);

// Set the calendar to be visible in the Google Calendar UI
var hidden = new google.gdata.calendar.HiddenProperty();
hidden.setValue(false);
entry.setHidden(hidden);

// Set the color that represent this calendar in the Google Calendar
UI
var color = new google.gdata.calendar.ColorProperty();
color.setValue('#2952A3');
entry.setColor(color);

// The callback method that will be called after a successful
// insertion from insertEntry()
var callback = function(result) {
  PRINT('calendar created!');
}

// Error handler will be invoked if there is an error from insertEntry
()
var handleError = function(error) {
  PRINT(error);
}

// Submit the request using the calendar service object
calendarService.insertEntry(feedUri, entry, callback,
    handleError, google.gdata.calendar.CalendarEntry);

Here is the page on the XML. Note that the above library generates
this XML under the hood and posts it for you.
I guess you're right with the <entry>
http://code.google.com/apis/calendar/docs/2.0/developers_guide_protocol.html#CreatingCalendars

Code snippet:
<entry xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom'
       xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005'
       xmlns:gCal='http://schemas.google.com/gCal/2005'>
  <title type='text'>Little League Schedule</title>
  <summary type='text'>This calendar contains the practice schedule
and game times.</summary>
  <gCal:timezone value='America/Los_Angeles'></gCal:timezone>
  <gCal:hidden value='false'></gCal:hidden>
  <gCal:color value='#2952A3'></gCal:color>
  <gd:where rel='' label='' valueString='Oakland'></gd:where>
</entry>
