As far as I know, he is the de facto maintainer (and creator) of the physics module already.
So I don't think it makes sense to wait any longer with granting him approver rights,
as well as officially making him the maintainer for his own module.

Jonas has been working for the Qt Company since April 2020, and we somehow forgot to nominate him for approver status before now. He has been working on the Qt Quick 3D module, as part of the Oslo graphics team.



His current project has been to turn Andy Nichols's proof-of-concept physics module (based on the Bullet engine) into a proper Qt module (based on Nvidia PhysX): Qt Quick 3D Physics (https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtquick3dphysics/+/410063). This module is planned to be released as a tech preview in Qt 6.4. The previous commit history can be found on https://git.qt.io/jokarlss/qtquick3dphysics

I therefore nominate Jonas as maintainer for Qt Quick 3D Physics. According to my interpretation of QUIP 2, this implies approver status, but to be on the safe side, I also explicitly nominate him as approver.

(Not currently maintaining any modules, but since I still have maintainer status, I think I am able to nominate a maintainer)
