Hey there, The link provided by David was using the Flexible URL and changing it to Standard, so by default it linked to PHP 5, which is the older version for GAE Standard. By simply changing the php <https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/php/release-notes> in the url to php7 <https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/php7/release-notes> , you can get the changelog for PHP 7 on GAE Standard.
The link to Flexible is for all PHP versions, since it focuses support on the latest versions (according to the docs <https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/php#choose-your-preferred-environment>). The release-notes will include mention of when PHP 8 is supported on Flexible, as it previously did with PHP 7 <https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/flexible/php/release-notes#March_09_2017> . If you'd rather not have to manually monitor these pages, you can use the URL's of these pages in your Feed Reader <https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_feed_aggregators> or use the feed URL's for these pages to add them directly (For standard it's this <https://cloud.google.com/feeds/gaestd-php-release-notes.xml> and for flexible it's this <https://cloud.google.com/feeds/gaeflex-php-release-notes.xml>).
