   ``ambiguous='infer'``, and ``infer_dst=False`` to ``ambiguous='raise'`` (:issue:`7963`).
 - When ``.resample()`` was changed from an eager to a lazy operation, like ``.groupby()`` in v0.18.0, we put in place compatibility (with a ``FutureWarning``),
   so operations would continue to work. This is now fully removed, so a ``Resampler`` will no longer forward compat operations (:issue:`20554`)
+- Remove long deprecated ``axis=None`` parameter from ``.replace()`` (:issue:`20271`)
