A temporal constraint language is a set of relations that are first-order definable over (Q;<). We show that several temporal constraint languages whose constraint satisfaction problem is maximally tractable are also maximally tractable for the more expressive quantified constraint satisfaction problem. These constraint languages are defined in terms of preservation under certain binary polymorphisms. We also present syntactic characterizations of the relations in these languages.
