Comment (by atagar):

 I've
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/stem.git/commit/?id=162206da75b2eab2e8ab7b2866e70493d44d31d4
 added Stem support for HS_DESC_CONTENT events]. This helped highlight a
 few issues...

 1. Events need to start with '650+HS_DESC_CONTENT' and end with a '650
 OK'. The [https://gist.github.com/DonnchaC/b76d934b8601ca9b3be0 example
 DonnchaC had] lacked both, causing Stem to treat it as a single line event
 (... which is actually precisely right according to the spec). For an
 example of what a multi-line event should look like see
 [http://paste.debian.net/plain/161282 this].

 2. The spec has 'HsDir = Fingerprint' but it's actually a LongName. Just
 need a spec tweak so we match HS_DESC: "HsDir = LongName / Fingerprint".

 3. When implementing this I assumed HSAddress will be 'UNKNOWN' if
 undefined (see earlier comment).

 Other than that looks good!
