Well, Google has suddenly realized that not only is CalDAV an open
standard, but it's actually used outside the Googleverse. Who could've
known? Anyway, they will continue to support it [1], so org-caldav
should work with Google Calendar for the time being (read: until they
change their mind again).

PS: I know that there are problems with org-caldav and the new
exporter. I'll switch to Org 8 soon and will then merge the pending pull
requests.
