How do I Modify the Columns in a Kanban View?

By default, the columns in in Kanban (with the MTM sample app) are "Open," "In Progress," and "Resolved."  How do I change these?  I know they map back to states in a work item (story), but how?

Thanks, Gary

This are the StateGroups you can configure with the Eclipse Client in the Process Configuration. You can define which State belongs to which StateGroup per WorkItem Type. And you can create new StateGroups. They will automatically be displayed in the Taskboard/Kanban view.

BTW: it is not possible to define StateGroups which will not be displayed in the Taskboard/Kanban.

Great, thanks! 

Now - is there a way I can configure their order in my Kanban view?  Right now it appears they are in alphabetical order, which puts "Closed" before "Ready for Test."

Thanks, Gary
