Dear all,
I think it is a problem somewhere with my local setup; if I add the
following to .authinfo (chmod 600) then it uses the right username:

Machine www.google.com login my-gmail-login

I'm now about to see how to setup .authinfo.gpg so that I can also
include my password in that file.

As David has pointed out, try the call to url-retrieve-synchronously
first, as that needs to be working before org-caldav works.
