 Sensei's Library: Komi
To prevent a drawn game in the case of jigo, the komi is commonly set to a fractional value such as 5.5 (which is a succinct way of expressing "White gets 5 points compensation and wins in the case of jigo").
In theory, the correct komi for a given ruleset is a well-defined concept: it is the number of points by which Black would win given perfect play by both sides.
Komi can also be used in handicap games to compensate for differences in strength that exceed the traditional maximum handicap of 9 stones.

The Nenets living in the Komi Republic are a small part of the Nenets of Russia, who are officially re-ferred to as on of the indigenous minorities of the North.
In fact, in the Komi Republic, a substantial group of "city resident Nenets" devel-oped; they were "city residents" only on paper and continued migrating between the Komi and Nenets okrugs maintaining close and often kindred relations with Nenets of both the Nenets and Yamalo-Nenets okrugs.
The paradox of the Komi Nenets situation lies in the fact that only a minority of the indigenous popula-tion (those in "the regions of residence…") enjoy all the rights they are entitled to.

 Recording Komi   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
Komi should be recorded as the number of prisoners that Black would give White if the game were played under AGA rules.
Nevertheless, there is an equivalence, and for the sake of uniformity, you should record the komi as if prisoners were exchanged, even if that is not the actual technique.
The actual Ing method is for White to place 4 stones inside Black's territory at the end of the game, which subtracts 4 from Black's count and adds 4 to White's count (because stones on the board count as points), for a net difference of 8.
