The latest sources are available in FreeBSD-current and OpenBSD-current.
An archive hacked so that it will build on just about any version of
FreeBSD is frequently generated and made available on
-http://www.FreeBSD.org/~brian. Once the first OpenBSD release is made
-with ppp, an up-to-date OpenBSD archive will be made available too.

A FAQ is available at http://www.FreeBSD.org/FAQ/userppp.html. It applies
equally to OpenBSD as it does to FreeBSD. The man page is quite extensive,
and there are lots of examples in /etc/ppp/ppp.*.sample. These examples

Ppp is still under development. There is no official TODO list.
