I know that Samuel Smith's uses open fermentation and skimmers. I believe there are a few more Yorkshire breweries that do likewise. (Samuel Smiths is also NOT low oxygen. In fact, watching a brew on their Victorian brewhouse would likely give a brewing with low O2 goals fits.)
I bought a SS Brewtech brew bucket just before my hiatus from brewing. Still haven't used it, but it seems the best of both worlds: conical bottom, easily removable lid for skimming. Goal would be to skim yeast/aerate the wort at least daily, if that doesn't provide the right results I'll move to open fermentation.
A former regular on here, S. Cerevisiae, used to talk about how many British strains have such high oxygen requirements that they won't fully ferment a beer, and as such aren't marketed to home brewers. The goal is to get to the point where these yeast can be used. (White Labs Cask Ale is one, if I remember correctly. They basically refused to sell it to home brewers when I emailed them about it, citing that it only comes in microbrewery-sized packaging. I said that's fine, I'll culture it from there, they still said no. Oh well.)
