I want to create a Rails 3 route with entirely optional parameters. The example route is:

match '(/name/:name)(/height/:height)(/weight/:weight)' => 'people#index'

The route works if I specify it as:

match '/people(/name/:name)(/height/:height)(/weight/:weight)' => 'people#index'

But I want to have this as the root URL. Thanks.
