I've sent invitations for an event which is not stored in my default
Google calendar.
People have replied to my invitation. When displaying the replies,
gmail has the following warning: Unable to retrieve this event from
your calendar.

Any idea how theses events can be displayed in gmail, althouhg they are
not part of the default calendar.

I'm not the first one to report this issue, see
<http://groups.google.com/group/google-calendar-help-bugs/browse_thread/thread/ae2b820bd3cfb7d9/85755f006a958feb?lnk=st&q=&rnum=2&hl=en#85755f006a958feb>

TIA

Do I have to consider this as a bug and wait for a fix, or is there any
tips/trick I've missed when I have setup my calendar ?

Probably a bug, temporary or otherwise. Sorry, I don't use the Gmail/Calendar integration a lot.

Follow the different prompts on the troubleshooting page and it will eventually get you to a form you can use to send them an email.

Actually I'd start with the help on Calendar, since the problem seems
more related to Calendar than GMail. It's help pages are different
and troubleshooting leads to a quicker e-mail form.

Actually I'd use both for best results.

That is already what I did by cross-posting this question on both calendar-help and gmail-help because I don't if the problem resides in gmail or in the calendar.
So far, no help from calendar-help. But I will follow your recommendations. If I get something else, I'll post it here as well.
