I've thought of trying to port Acme to Go on several occasions so might be interested in helping out with this effort. But that's not really an issue. The issue is more: do you have any interest in and/or guidance for contributions?

Hi, I'm definitely keen for contributions, though I've not really thought of any guidance on it yet. The project as it currently stands contains a fully transliterated port of libframe and an incomplete transliteration of acme itself (Using the plan9port source as the reference).

The current plan is to refactor libframe to be more idiomatic Go, before verifying that the implementation is correct (including the additions of various tests). Following that, I intend to finished the transliteration of acme, hoping to get to a stable working version before doing the same refactor/verification stage as with libframe.

Give me a couple of days to clean up the code a bit (the acme code is all over the place currently) and I'll add some formal guidance for contributions on the README.
