The design is there in the kernel and on the web pages.

The simplest way to get involved is to code a word, or a functionality 
that exists in the kernel in colorForth and share it. It can be a very 
small piece, it doesn't matter. I think it could work well this way, 
because with a small piece you can focus on quality. I am willing to share 
any portion of compiler if there is immediate interest otherwise, I would 
just finish it an release it whole, or at least finish the compiler with 
stubs for things like 'abort' which depends on 'accept' which is rather 
large undertaking in its own right.
