Quick answers:

OpenFOAM-dev refers to the development repository made available at Github by the OpenFOAM Foundation here: https://github.com/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-dev/ - the objective is to give people the ability to try out the latest developments before a stable release is made, along with being able to more easily stay up-to-date on changes, for CFD software developers that depend on OpenFOAM.
If you're confused about versions made available by the OpenFOAM Foundation and ESI-OpenCFD, read this thread: OpenFOAM.com versus OpenFOAM.org: Which version to use?
