User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:71.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/71.0
Steps to reproduce:
Wanted to test 71.0b and my Google Calendars but I can't since Provider for Google Calendar isn't available for 71.0b.
Actual results:
Can't update from 70.0b to 71.0b because no Provider for Google Calendar 71.0b is available.
Expected results:
Provider for Google Calendar 71.0b should be available.

Hmm, is this really a dupe being that there's no gdata-provider.en-US.xpi for 71.0b? Is it relating to bug 1592407 in that Phil still has to fix the issue in https://github.com/kewisch/gdata-provider/commit/29dc484b04640d609b26d2f5728b0221e9f05bb6 in order to build a new gdata-provider.en-US.xpi for 71.0b?

We're throwing all Goggle OAuth issues into bug 1592407. Strictly speaking, all complaints about gData are invalid.

Gotcha. As a side note, took a chance on using the gdata provider xpi for 68.2.1 and, surprisingly, it worked fine for 71.0b.

Where did you get the new version from? This one
https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-GB/thunderbird/addon/provider-for-google-calendar/
is from September.

Nope. Testing with the 68.2.1 candidate build from http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/candidates/68.2.1-candidates/build1/en-US/

But we didn't patch gData's own OAuth2 module, it's still wrong:
https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/comm-esr68/file/tip/calendar/providers/gdata/modules/OAuth2.jsm#l29
So how can that work?

Indeed. Makes no sense to me either. =) I was expecting to sail the failboat when I tried. And the only reason I even tried was the statement "Works with Thunderbird 68.0 - *" from the ATN page so I though, what the heck, I will try and if it fails, oh well. Yet here we are.

And just so you don't think I'm nuts or pulling your chain. See attached image.

I can easily believe that it's compatible if nothing drastic has changed since 68. But I'm surprised that it works since the OAuth2 should be failing.

The 68.2.1 gdata-provider installs into my 71.0b2 on Ubuntu, testing with a test profile, but I can't create a new calendar.
I can't go any farther after I enter my Username into the 'Create New Calendar' dialog window. The 'Next' button doesn't get enabled.

I thought it might have been because I had general.useragent.compatMode.firefox=true so I flipped it back to false and restarted. No issues. No failures. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I know you guys rae busy doing damage control on this but do you want me to check for something in error console?

No issues here creating new event on my Win 10 x64 machine.

I wasn't trying to create an event.
I was trying to create the Network Calendar.
I don't use my Windows 10 laptop that much and decided to uninstall TB Beta there.
I switched all my TB's to use Google CalDAV since it has been decided to not provide a current version for the Beta and Daily releases.
I do miss my sports schedules and Phase of the Moon calendars, but there is always Google Calendar on the web.

Ah, I read it too fast and misunderstood. Sorry about that.

So I just tried to add my work GMail calendar as a CalDAV and I'm able to go all the way and add it without issue. It does have a notice next to it that says "The calendar Test is momentarily not available"
