[tor-dev] "identity digest" and "hash of a router's identity key"

[Frank Young]

Yes you are right, after decoding that value from base64 and
re-encoding it in base16, it can be used to get the router's
descriptor.
What i'm trying to get is the list of HSDIR responsible for a hidden service.
After calculating the descriptor for the hidden service, i need to
know the identity digest of all the HSDIR in the consensus, so that i
can sort them and get the three which are responsible for the
descriptor id.
I base64 decoded the digest fields of HSDIR in the consensus and
assume those are the identity digest which i can sort.
I'm i correct?
