## Feature
The `temporal_tables` extension, version 1.2.2 is generally available. This extension provides support for temporal tables. A temporal table records the period of time when a row is valid from a database perspective. For more information, see [Configure PostgreSQL extensions](https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/postgres/extensions).
You can now perform `CREATE CAST` and `DROP CAST` statements as a database user with the `cloudsqlsuperuser` role. For more information, see [About PostgreSQL users and roles](https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/postgres/users).

* **Earlier** is renamed to **Week 1**
* **Later** is renamed to **Week 2**
