Looking at the source code and the documentation of com.google.gdata.model.MetadataRegistry, it seems some classes are expected to contain a static method 'registerMetadata', which is then accessed through reflection. Similarly, com.google.gdata.model.Element seems to expect a field 'KEY'. Since ProGuard or DexGuard can't know this, you need to preserve such fields and methods with their original names:

-keepclassmembers class * extends com.google.gdata.model.Element {
    public static com.google.gdata.model.ElementKey KEY;
    public static void registerMetadata(com.google.gdata.model.MetadataRegistry);
}
