Abstract
The program of a physical concept of information is outlined in the framework of quantum theory. A proposal is made for how to avoid the introduction of axiomatic observables. The conventional (collapse) and the Everett interpretations of quantum theory may in principle lead to different dynamical consequences. Finally, a formal ensemble description not based on a concept of lacking information is discussed.
