Why the About Box? Shouldn't that be in the Perference or gnome-control-center? Have a small program like Ubuntu's Device Database where the user can run it at their will. Ask them a few questions about new or important feature in the release and ask them to submit their feedback. Let them know they are welcome to fill it out as often as they want so that their feedback can be used to make the next release even better. It think making it obvious and reminding them that their feedback does matter, is a lot better than throwing it in the about Box which maybe gets looked at once or twice.
