Alain, I am also running into this issue. I am calling makerequest to ping my server for data every 5 min. I did a test where I sign in to my calendar sidebar gadget and authenticate via OAuth. I then let the app site for 1.5 hrs making a makerequest call to my server every 5 min. I then select an event which calls getCalendarEventEntry. It fails and returns 403 error. So in 1.5 hrs at 5 min intervals that is 18 makerequests calls plus a dew to initially authenticate. Why am I getting 403 errors/quota limit after at most 25 calls in less than 2 hrs?
