My phd thesis also reports the values for other opening moves. (3,2): B+3, (2,2): W+1, (edge) W+25. For more info see: http://erikvanderwerf.tengen.nl/pubdown/thesis_erikvanderwerf.pdf If anyone believes he can refute these results I'd be interested to hear about it (especially if you are high dan level).
