I want to know the answer to this too. A major outage like this calls for notification that a detailed post-mortem will follow and not just your default 'prevent or minimize future recurrence' message:
*The issue with Google App Engine has been resolved for all affected users as of Tuesday, 2018-07-17 13:05 US/Pacific. We will conduct an internal investigation of this issue and make appropriate improvements to our systems to help prevent or minimize future recurrence.* Not only were our App Engine apps down, but so were our GCP auto-scaling groups. They didn't receive any further traffic from the load balancers until we forced a manual instance rolling restart/replacement of the group. It seems they somehow got detached from the load balancers and Google systems didn't detect / auto-resolve this.
