Just need template variables, eg {$GLOBALS['threadfields']['progress']} placed in the right places (probably forumdisplay_thread and showthread templates).
The colouring can be done using the format map list.

I would imagine a progress field would be more suitable as option buttons or a select box rather than check boxes though.
