Projection for processed_p.shp?

Hi!

I am trying to convert an excerpt from the processed_p.shp for mapnik
coastline rendering back to .osm with shp-to-osm.jar. This application
requires a .prj projection file, but there is none included with the
shape files.

Does anyone have a matching .prj file for the processed_p shapes or does
know how to create one? I'm completely lost there.

thanks

The projection is spherical mercator (900913), you can download a .PRJ
file from the menu on
