 Shapefile data with proper projection attribution (EPSG: 2229, NAD83 /
 California zone 5 (ftUS)) is not properly recognized when loaded into
 QGIS.

 My QGIS Options > CRS tab is set to 'Prompt for CRS' when layer is loaded
 that has no coordinate reference system. Tests have been run against other
 properly projected shapefiles and it appears this behavior is specific to
 EPSG 2229.

 Perhaps this issue arises from the definition of the .prj file - my data
 is coming from http://www.countyofsb.org/itd/gis/default.aspx?id=2802 I am
 also seeing a significant difference between the .prj files when defining
 the projection with fTools - but will address that issue with Mr. Farmer.

 Will be glad to attach any desired files. -joe
