I think that Chuck Moore sees it as a stage on the way to arrayForth
(and whatever comes after that).  Sourceless was a dead end for him,
because he went back to using source code.

And it seems to be that those people who are particularly interested
in what Chuck Moore is doing are now looking into the Greenarrays
chips and arrayForth, that's why there is less buzz about colorForth.

I don't think many of the interested people have used colorForth for
production purposes, and the same will probably happen with
arrayForth.
