The developer that takes on this issue will have todo some in depth reading and experimentation.I think you may be looking for the update method. Seems to me it is called by Grok before anything else happens.
AFAIK, the update() method exists only for grok.View derived classes. It is indeed called before doing the rendering of the View.
I think one should not create containers or do other application logic in Views. That should be done in grok.Application/Model/Container derived classes/objects.
In particular, when creating the (singleton) Oship application, creating the containers for the archetype repository and terminal server/service are one-time actions. Therefore, to me the __init__() method still looks like a very good candidate to contain those statements.
