Here's a first try at $subject.  I used the 19beta1 announcement as a
guide.

Hi,

yay for having this in place earlier this time.

Some comments:

Maybe it's because I'm not a native speaker, but I tripped over the
second part and parsed it as a function of the replicate sequence
values, not logical replication. Would it help readers to drop the "it",
i.e. write "and can be enabled [...]"?

(This is kinda a catch-all statement and might go well as last item,
dunno).

I think we still don't say "the database" when we talk about a
server/instance/cluster. It should either be "the cluster" or "the
database server".

I think this sentence should include something about temporal
ranges/keys, or maybe just s/time range/temporal range/?

How about something like this?

    Support for temporal updates and deletes via the new FOR PORTION OF
    clause.
