RULE Run Up to Date Linux Everywhere is a project that aims to use up to date Linux software on old PCs 5 years old or more , by recompiling and changing some code to recent programs in order to make them use less resources so they can run conveniently. The reasons The principal advantages of using old PCs with up to date software are support for more up to date standards HTML4, Java, etc. more secure to use because of patched security holes old PCs may consume less energy than new ones, making them cheaper to use and reducing pollution re use PCs that would otherwise be discarded, thus reducing e waste PCs are not cheap, especially for third world or Eastern European countries, or for big volumes for example a school needs a lot of PCs. Information about the project The distributions of GNU Linux that have been the focus for the project are Fedora Core and Red Hat, but users developers of other distributions are welcomed. The main activity of the RULE site is to test contributors packages and provide user documentation and easy installation procedures.

The Latin Rule was a document with 72 clauses attributed to Bernard de Clairvaux and Hugues de Payens . It is also known as the Specific Behavior for the Templar Order . It outlines the ideal behavior of a knight. The rule borrowed from the rule of Saint Augustine , but was mostly inspired by the rule of Saint Benedict . It was, however, adapted for use by active, primarily military, knights, rather than cloistered monks. For example, the fasts were less severe so that they did not interfere with combat. The original rule was written in 1128 and added to the minutes of the Council of Troyes in 1129. However, in about 1138 under the direction of Robert de Craon , second grand master of the order 1136 1149 , the rule was translated into French and modified. Later, it was expanded to include 609 articles, notably covering such things as hierarchy and justice within the order.
