These are great news!
I was thinking some time ago why there is no such emulator yet, but in practice I never did search for it.
There are Windows 3.x game packs on internet archive:

I hope that Wine will work on Windows someday, so we will be able to even play old not compatible 32-bit games on newer Windows (yes I know compatibility mode and other tricks but they are not working with any game):

Win3mu turned open-source, since dev has no time to work with it, he put the source code public for the community to improve! Needs to be compiled first, but good news either way

Seems to be a partial Wine fork that is bound to overtake Win3mu's progress - a ton
