-Axes used to make colorbar now wrapped
-======================================
-
-The axes used to place a colorbar is now wrapped by a new parent class
-(``ColorbarAxes``) when the colorbar is created::
-
-    cb = fig.colorbar(im, cax=cax)
-
-This means that ``cb.ax`` is no longer the same object as ``cax``. However, 
-we map all the methods from ``cb.ax`` onto ``cax`` so ``cax`` should remain 
-functionally the same as ``cb.ax``.  
-
 Colorbar lines no longer clipped
 ================================
