I have hacked a away around this by forcing the content length to 0 as follows 
(starting line 603 of resumableupload.cs). The issue is now solved for me and I 
can upload.

        /// <summary>
        /// retrieves the resumable URI for the rest of the operation. This will initiate the 
        /// communication with resumable upload server by posting against the starting URI
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="resumableUploadUri"></param>
        /// <param name="authentication"></param>
        /// <param name="entry"></param>
        /// <returns>The uri to be used for the rest of the operation</returns>
        public Uri InitiateUpload(Uri resumableUploadUri, Authenticator authentication, string contentType, string slug, long contentLength, string httpMethod) {
            HttpWebRequest request = PrepareRequest(resumableUploadUri,
                authentication,
                slug,
                contentType,
                contentLength,
                httpMethod);

            // Zero the content length
            request.ContentLength = 0;

            WebResponse response = request.GetResponse();
            return new Uri(response.Headers["Location"]);
        }

Thanks for reporting the bug and for the quick fix, I committed your patch in

• Changed state: Fixed

I ran into the same issue but with the normal Insert method. I used this 
overload:
    public TEntry Insert<TEntry>(Uri feedUri, TEntry entry) where TEntry : AtomEntry;

I looked into the problem and have fixed it by adding the following line to 
google-gdata\clients\cs\src\core\request.cs (line 525):
    web.ContentLength = this.ContentLength;

That function creates a Request object based on the GDataRequest object. When 
doing that it copies the properties which both classes have. It seems that the 
ContentLength property was just forgotten.

@ccherubino, can you commit this patch?

Thanks for the patch, Mark.
I'm going to test it as soon as possible, but I must be extra careful as the 
method you are changing, EnsureWebRequest(), is used by all APIs.
