Strange it works for me.
Why would Google return a 404 - not found when you inserted the entry?

I suspect the last missing 'E' was a copy/paste issue.

I've read that Google's timezone support is broken and it only supports 
TZIDs that have the same TimeZone ID as the Java ID String. Since I see 
you have used a Java TZID above I wonder if that's true. If that's true, 
it would seem Google isn't using the VTIMEZONE at all and is only going 
by the TZID - which must be equivalent to a Java TimeZone ID String.

Is that correct?

I don't get numbers as responses - I use the Java API. There were no 
errors when the event was submitted.

LOL - 'this code' is ScheduleWorld; it transmits a large number of 
events to/from Google every day.

Btw, the redirect problem we were working on before is back.

Cheers.
