+The time specifies the maximum allowed time that a job may run, counted from
+when the job was scheduled. This can be useful to prevent jobs from running
+during working hours. We can see it like \texttt{Max Start Delay + Max Run
+  Time}.
+
+\item [Max Wait Time]
+Previous \textbf{MaxWaitTime} directives aren't working as expected, instead
+of checking the maximum allowed time that a job may block for a resource,
+those directives worked like \textbf{MaxRunTime}. Some users are reporting to use
+\textbf{Incr/Diff/Full Max Wait Time} to control the maximum run time of their job
+depending on the level. Now, they have to use \textbf{Incr/Diff/Full Max Run Time}.
+\textbf{Incr/Diff/Full Max Wait Time} directives are now deprecated.

+\item [Incremental|Differential Max Wait Time = \lt{}time\gt{}] 
+Theses directives have been deprecated in favor of \texttt{Incremental|Differential

+\item [Max Run Time directives]
+Using \textbf{Full/Diff/Incr Max Run Time}, it's now possible to specify the
+maximum allowed time that a job can run depending on the level.
