- The dev team is working again, with a new client update available - True, it is a positive movement.Hope they will release beta version soon.

- The Ethereum-Doge bridge has made significant progress - Well,it is much more ETH than DOGE project.They use DOGE just as a suitable vehicle during experimentation phase and the project goal is to make easy swap between ETH and other coins.

- Large growth in the community since last year - There are no any relevant data about it.It is hard to believe due to loss of chinese traders

- The amount of Doge for sale on the major exchanges (Poloniex + Bittrex) has decreased by 2/3 from 8 billion to under 3 billion since last summer - Unfortunately it is not result of increase investing,but due to loss of chinese market which consisted 2/3 of DOGE market.After chinese government ban in September there were massive sell of DOGE,plus DOGE lost biggest exchange BTC38 and few other smaller chinese exchanges too.As you look at this year pump ,volumes are about 2/3 less than in previous in May.Positive is that korean exchange Upbit becomes more and more relevant market for DOGE,but it will need a significant time to compensate loss of chinese market.If DOGE lists on Binance and/or some japanese exchange it will be great.

- Spring is a season when crypto rises - Will see,but it is true that in late spring May-June markets become more interesting.
