ofxSyphon + modul8

Okay so the more time i spend with Modul8 the more i realized what a powerful tool this guy is. Every time i figure something out there are ten more things i want to try to figure out (which i generally enjoy anyways). Soooo, my next task is to implement this:

So i'm doing some research, bugging the hell out of Vade, Bang Noise and the midi thief on the twitters and I've come to a mind block (thanks for that btw guys it's fun to talk to the masters).

I installed Xcode.
I've downloaded of_preRelease_v007_osx. Here are instructions on how to install the OF prerelease which i believe i have done correctly cause the examples run fine http://www.openframeworks.cc/setup/xcode.
And i also have this: ofxSyphonServerExample.xcodeproj, which i can not run.
I think i need ofxsyphon.qtz which i can't seem to find (guessing i'll need to make this)

According to Bang Noise "his ofxsyphon is just going to be a .qtz with a regular QC Syphon Client patch in it, and a ofxSyphon server running in OF"

I can figure out how to add a syphon client patch in QC. What i can't figure out at the moment is how to run the ofxSyphon server in OF.

If I run fxSyphonServerExample.xcodeproj there's a bunch of red file names like, Glee.a, CppUnit.a, GLUT.framework, etc.

I'm guessing I either haven't downloaded everything i need or i'm not pointing the xcode project file in the right direction....or something else that i'm missing completely. Any help on getting this running is greatly appreciated!

PS i'm searching the http://forum.openframeworks.cc but i don't understand the majority of the stuff, which is probably the bigger problem here :)

Thanks!
